Shirt dresses

I finished a commission, also by my sister. She saw a beautiful yellow flower maxi shirt dress (Fabienne Chapot's Mia dress), but is was a bit to expensive. She found a beautiful fabric herself and I bought the same fabric in pink.

Labels

To create some order: I have made some labels which (I think) are pretty self-explanatory.

• Sewing planning will contain the plans, which fabric, why the pattern and such.
• A specific challenge will be labeled as such. An example would be, making a similar copy of a garment seen in stores.
• Sew along will contain all the pictures during sewing and will be updated as the project advances.
• Pattern review will show the finished garments and talk about specifics of the pattern, is it easy to understand and/or make. What did I change in the pattern and why. And any tips or tricks.
• Vintage sewing projects have their own label. These might be 'true' vintage patterns or reissues of them.
